Calculation of the Defects Interaction Force with the Ritz Method

Sergey Vakulenko

The defects are moving with the constant velocity V, on which slow vibrations caused by the interaction is imposed . For very long time nearest-neighbor defects are approaching to each other and then are annihilated. The process of mutual annihilation (confluence) is comparatively fast after the defects have approached close to each other. A single defect frictional force has been found with the help of the Ritz method.
